It’s All About the Children

It’s all about the children

Their laughter and their dreams

The way they chase the daylight

Beside the quiet streams

They notice every small thing

A rainbow after rain

Still finding joy in moments

Adults forget again

Some grow up far too quickly

Learning sorrow way too young

Carrying heavy burdens

Before their songs are sung

The world keeps getting colder

Too busy chasing gold

While little hands keep reaching

For someone safe to hold

A child remembers kindness

Long after years have passed

One gentle word of comfort

Can become their strength at last

Not every wound is visible

Some stay hidden deep

Behind the smiling faces

Of children scared to speak

So protect their fragile hearts now

Give them hope to trust

Teach them love still matters

Teach them they are enough

Because the future walks beside us

In every child we see

It’s all about the children

And who they grow to be
